***IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR TREEHOUSE KIT PLAYSETS***

Read all instructions thoroughly before beginning construction, this is very important. The

“Treehouse Add On Kit” (1525) box will require you to deviate slightly from the standard kit

instructions.

Typical deviations include:

1) The Telescope that is usually on the front of the set on the Front face board (arched board)

must be moved to another location on the set. Additional instructions to mount the Telescope to

a 2 x 4 or a 4 x 4 are included in the play set Appendix or with the “Treehouse Add On Kit”

manual. Mount the Telescope along the top of any of the railings that do not interfere with any

areas that are activity openings.

2) The Roof Peak Support Triangle will need to be removed from the inside of the Roof Supports

located on the front of the play set. The Plastic Sunburst should be left off the front of the play

set. The “Treehouse Add On Kit” will be added to the front of the play set.

3) Flag Kits which normally reside on the front of the front corner posts at the top should be

relocated to the front slats on the “Treehouse Add On Kit”

Wood/Accessory and Hardware Lists:

These lists for the “Treehouse Add On Kit” are in the Appendix at the end of your play set

instruction manual or they are included with this sheet.

Steps to complete the “Treehouse Add On Kit”:

The instruction steps for the “Treehouse Add On Kit” are in the Appendix at the end of your play

set instruction manual or they are included with this sheet.

If you are adding the “Treehouse Add On Kit” to a playset that is already built:

It will be necessary to remove the Flags and Plastic Sunburst from the front side of your playset

wood roof. Then remove the 5/4 x 10” Roof Peak Support triangle from the inside of the front Roof

Supports. Keep these pieces and hardware since most will be reused during the construction

process.

Fill in the holes in the corner posts from the Flags with clear silicone (not included). If you wish to

fill the holes with a fastener then use #8 x 1” countersunk head screws with silicone in each hole.

You will need to purchase these screws at your local home center if you choose this option.

Fill any small holes in the Roof Supports leftover from removing the Plastic Sunburst with wood

filler. Use a stainable wood filler suitable for outdoor use. Then stain the wood filled spots with a

suitable matching color of stain.

Please inspect and inventory all parts immediately upon accepting delivery. Use the

inventory pages in the manual to make sure you have received all necessary parts.

The quickest method to get any parts that are missing or damaged is use our “Quick

Response Center” located at:

IMPORTANT SAFETY GUIDELINES

This product is recommended for use by children ages 3-11. This product is intended for residential

use only and not intended for use in any public setting. A safety surface such as mulch or recycled

tire should be used under the play set to prevent injury from falls. Also a 6 foot safety zone should be

used around the entire play set.

As with any home project, good judgment and respect for power tools will greatly reduce the risk

of injury. PlayNation recommends you follow all tool manufacturers’ safety guidelines. Always wear

eye protection and safety gloves to prevent injury. In several phases of construction two people may

be required for lifting and securing of lumber. While the play set is being constructed, please keep

children off the equipment until the project is complete. Bolts and screw heads should be checked

regularly for tightness. The ground ladder, rope ladder, slide, swings and other areas where children

spend a majority of their playtime should be checked more frequently.

PlayNation shall not be liable for incidental, indirect or consequential damages or injuries that result

from the building and/or playing on our play sets. Adult supervision is recommended anytime a play

set is being used.

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ

Congratulations! You have just purchase one of the finest residential wooden swing sets available today. As

with any wooden product that spends its entire life outside, in varying elements, it is important to know what to

expect with your new swing set so that your family can enjoy it for many years.

As your swing set acclimates to its new environment, natural characteristics of the wood can show in the form

of checks, or “cracks” in the lumber. In almost all cases this is normal and it will not affect the structural

integrity of your play set and is not covered under warranty.

KEEPING YOUR PLAYSET LIKE NEW

MUST DO’s

The following owner responsibilities are crucial to the safety, integrity and aesthetic appeal of your

swing set and may affect the warranty if not adhered to.

WITHIN 60 DAYS

• Check and tighten Hex Bolts/T-nuts, Carriage Bolts/Lock-nuts, and Lag Screws within the first 60 days and

then twice annually – once before each season and then once during the season.

WITHIN 90 DAYS

• Apply a sealant or semi-transparent stain with sealant within the first 90 days of owning the swing set. If

applicable state laws allow, an oil based product will penetrate and protect the lumber better than a water

based product. Because climate conditions can vary drastically from region to region, we suggest asking the

product covering specialists at any number of specialty paint stores or home improvement centers for a

product that would work best for your local environment. ** TIP – while the set is new, take a small board from

your swing set to the store with you so they can color match the tint of the stain or sealant. Be sure to replace

the board when you get home.

SEASONAL REMINDERS

• If your area experiences regular snowfall, remove your fabric tarp/canopy to avoid stretching, sagging or

tearing of the material. Store it inside, folded up, and it will be as good as new when winter is over.

• If your area experiences extremely cold temperatures, remove swing belts and other pliable features to

prolong the lifespan of these play activities.

OTHER TIPS

• Spray swing hangers with Pam, Mazola or olive oil to stop squeaking; do not use petroleum based products

such as WD-40 or motor oil.

• To repel yellow jackets and wasps, use a cotton ball and dab interior wooden corners underneath the play set

deck with a liquid dish soap. Avoid using insecticides.

• To speed up the slide wipe the center of slide with wax paper every 2 - 3 weeks.

1518 Clubhouse Walls

FOR MODELS:

(1500CWC/1500CWCF/1500CWCR/1500CTC)

!!READ ME FIRST!!

The Clubhouse Walls for this unit will require removal of some boards to install the walls.

There will be some boards that will be leftover after the walls are installed.

Have you assembled your play set?

If “yes”, then READ the Leftover Parts notes at the bottom of this page, then turn the page

and proceed.

If “no”, then keep reading below.

If you have NOT already assembled your play set then you will need to do the following as

you are building your play set:

1) DO install the angle supports in Step 6B of the main instruction manual. These will

help stabilize the structure as construction progresses to the end.

2) DO NOT install the Safety Board in Step 33 (Side to Side Roof), Step 42 (Front to Back

Roof) or Step 31 (Tarp Roof) of the main instruction manual.

3) DO NOT install the Sandbox Seats in Step 47 (Side to Side Roof), Step 55 (Front to Back

Roof) or Step 44 (Tarp Roof) of the main instruction manual.

4) DO install the Clubhouse Walls after the entire play set structure is completed.

5) DO NOT build the picnic table until after the clubhouse walls are installed.

The 1500 play set series is modular. Because of this some parts will be leftover after the

Clubhouse Walls are installed.

Leftover Parts:

2 – 5/4 x 6 x 22” Sandbox Seats, 1 – 2 x 6 x 70” Sandbox Board,

All boards for the Picnic Table. The picnic table parts will be part of the leftover pieces for

this set. If your play set is already completed you may choose to remove the picnic table

from the right side of the unit and place it on the left side after the clubhouse walls are

installed. Placing the picnic table in this position will take up approximately 35% of the

useable floor space at the bottom of the play set.

*Clear Silicone Caulk will be needed to fill in any screw holes in the green posts.
